62. Couldn't answer the question? Seriously? You actually expected an answer to your question?

Sorry, I thought your question was a rhetorical one not requiring an answer because the answer was an obvious one. I am hardly surprised.

RHETORICAL QUESTION: A rhetorical question is a question that you ask without expecting an answer, because the answer is obvious, but you have asked the question to make a point, to persuade or for literary effect.

I am not blaming the Clinton campaign for something that was the fault of the Colorado Democratic Party.

What matters is that had it not been uncovered by the Denver Post, Bernie would have never received the delegate that was rightfully his. The Clinton campaign knew about the error and said nothing. Is it any wonder why Hillary's "Honest and Trustworthy" ratings are in the toilet?
Apparently honesty, integrity, and trustworthiness means nothing to you...but, that's hardly unexpected. News flash, it means everything to many of us.
